A Prospective, Randomized, Multi-Center, Open-Label Trial Comparing a Novel Goniotomy Procedure and an Ab Interno Trabecular Bypass Device in the Treatment of Mild to Moderate Glaucoma in Patients Undergoing Cataract Extraction
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of goniotomy performed with a
novel ophthalmic knife compared to trabecular bypass stent implantation in mild to moderate
glaucoma subjects who are also undergoing cataract extraction with phacoemulsification
(Phaco) and posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) implant.
